Interesting. I've got that in my /etc/profile (I *thought* I'd added
something like it), added Dec 13:
export GS_LIB=/usr/share/gs/6.51:/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts
...but the value doesn't seem to be getting propogated (I'm starting via
wdm). I've changed /etc/environment to just source /etc/profile.
Setting that value (forced in my ~/.bashrc) seems to fix things.
Thanks.
